"...in 1976, we created the world’s first light-powered watch. The technology was named Eco-Drive." "Eco-Drive converts any kind of light into energy to power a watch, storing the surplus on a power cell. On a full charge, an Eco-Drive watch runs for months even in darkness with no need for regular battery replacement. It’s designed to charge from ordinary everyday light sources like indoor fluorescent lighting and desk lights. You can go about your everyday life confident that your watch will never stop." Eco Drive watches use natural and artificial light to recharge, with a power reserve in the dark of up to over one and a half years. Eco-Drive SATELLITE WAVE It was until 2011 when Citizen released for first time in the “watch industry mainstream” the GPS satellite-controlled watch: the limited-edition Citizen Eco-Drive Satelite Wave. It was ultimately adopted by watch lovers, so Citizen continued its GPS-controlled watch family and others followed. “The Eco-Drive SATELLITE WAVE watch receives signals from navigation satellites orbiting 20,000 kilometres above the planet. This enables a reception area covering the entire globe. The fastest automatic time and date correction speed combines to provide perfect precision in any open space, anywhere you explore.” Citizen GPS Satellite watches refine and surpass radio-controlled technology by adjusting the watches with the signal from a system of satellites orbiting the earth. The precision of the signal is in fact perfect, with a tolerance of one second every ten million years. CITIZEN Eco-Drive SATELLITE WAVE Super Titanium Ref. CC2006-53E From one of the three major collections of GPS satellite-controlled watches currently available and produced by one of the big Japanese watch makers, this Citizen Eco-Drive Satellite Wave F100 wristwatch. New for 2014, when Citizen released another new collection of GPS watches that sync with global positioning satellites to indicate the correct time anywhere you are in the world. For sure, it is still a revolutionary piece with a good look that combines an excellent mix of functionality and design with the Eco-Drive Satellite Wave F100. Today we are offering an extraordinary timepiece, “a new generation of speed.” It is a pre-owned Citizen Eco-Drive Satellite Wave F100 wristwatch, reference CC2006-53E (CC2006-61E in the US) and dated from 2014. It boasts the world’s fastest signal with 3 second synch reception speed, a satellite timekeeping system for 40 time zones (27 cities), perpetual calendar, anti-reflective sapphire crystal, and day/date feature combined with Eco-Drive technology. It is a quartz watch powered by the Citizen-produced caliber F100 Eco-Drive movement. Featuring the Eco-Drive technology – powered by light, any light, never needs a battery. It includes a perpetual calendar, day of the week indicator, power reserve indicator, date, light level indicator (showing how much power it is generating), and world time for 47 cities, in addition to the GPS receiver functions. The Citizen Satellite Wave F100 is among the cleanest GPS watches in the market with a very legibility dial. The black and gray dial features a very unique design, each of the hands has its own motor – the hands can move independently and thus more quickly.

Eco-Drive SATELLITE WAVE Satellite Time Keeping System F100-TO21077 GN-4W-S-6G 4O1020922 Base Titanium Antimag.4800 W.R. 10BAR Made in Japan Measurements (mm): Case Diameter 46 Case Diameter w/Crown 48.5 Case Lug to Lug 49.5 Case Thickness 12.4 Band Width 24 Vintage watches are traditionally smaller than today's watches. Men’s watches typically measure between 29-36mm wide (some larger, some smaller) excluding the crown. In the listing details we typically try to do our best to list all pertinent dimensions of a watch. If you don't see it, or we failed to do so, please reach out to us. Women’s watches from the 1900s-1970s were also much smaller than today's offerings. Please also feel free to ask any questions you have pertaining to size. We prefer to shoot photographs outside when weather is permitting. However, when we shoot indoors, please be aware that we shoot our photographs inside of lightboxes that are lit with 360 LED bulbs. This indeed magnifies any flaws. Usually, they are much less obvious to the naked eye. Having said that, we never photoshop any of our photography, remove blemishes, etc. We adjust the lighting, when necessary, but what you see is what you are getting, and we take pride in that. The condition is pre-owned. The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear but is fully operational and functions as intended. Please review the photos and feel free to ask any questions you may have. It will be carefully packed. Please view our other listings. Thank you for looking! Please, if you have Zero or Low feedback, please contact us prior. Please be aware that the item you are bidding on or purchasing is a VINTAGE item. If this item is a watch, unless otherwise noted, it is keeping accurate time over a 2–4-hour time period. We specialize in watches that are 20-100 years old, and as such, these items are previously worn, and the quality of the item WILL reflect that. Expect for a vintage timepiece to have blemishes... this is part of what gives these amazing pieces their charm. Further, unless a watch specifically says that it has been recently serviced, expect that at some point in time, this timepiece will need a professional servicing in order to run and keep excellent time, which is also part of the experience of owning any mechanical watch. If an extremely accurate, worry-free experience is what you are seeking, we would recommend purchasing a new quartz watch. Very few, if any, vintage watches will keep as accurate time as a modern quartz watch. We do our absolute best to take accurate photographs of our items and to show any blemishes. Examples of common characteristics of a vintage timepiece are: -imperfections on the crystal -imperfections on case -imperfections on the lugs -unless stated that the strap is new, the leather is often quite old and may need replacing in the future -metal bracelets may not include all of the links that the watch originally may have come with, but can be replaced with a bracelet or strap of your choosing If the item is a piece of vintage jewelry, be aware that the item may have some minor blemishes such as: -missing stones (view photos, we will NEVER photoshop in a missing stone or piece) -minor scratches or discoloration -fading of plating -fading of paint We do our best to take accurate photos and provide accurate descriptions. Please take time to view our high-resolution photos of the item, and please ask any questions you may have prior to placing your bid. We want this purchasing experience to be pleasant and surprise-free. Vintage and antique items, unless "new old stock", have been around the block a time or two. Thank you for your business! We hope to see you return in the future! WA-4684
